Difference between stand up and lay down tanning?

Is there a difference in lay down or stand up tanningbeds as far as how tan you get? Because I’ve heard you get tanner in a lay down and I wanted to know if that’s true. Also, I heard that your legs get tanner in a stand up, is that true too?

Answer #1

both tanning beds and the sun directly cause skin cancer and prematurely age your skin and face, just like sun exposure does as well as numerous other things the only safe tan is a FAKE tan one form a bottle, spay on, wipe, cream or can be smart and get a fake tan

Answer #2

stand up is better cause it tans the side of your body.. when you lay down you only tan the back and tummy but under your arms its all white :)

Answer #3

hmm, I found no difference. but I deffienetly like stand up ones better, by the time of my 18 minutes, I felt like I was laying in a pool of sweat. its kinda gross.

Answer #4

fake bakes wash off fast. but also turn a lot of people ORANGE! all bc they wont work up to the darker tan lotions.

if you fake bake (which is the safest way to go) then pick a bronzer that is only slightly darker then you are now. use that untill you get the color on the bottle. then go darker if you want.

but if youre pale white and you try to pick the darkest lotion then YOU ARE GOING TO LOOK LIKE AN OOMPA LOOMPA! I promise :]

Answer #5
